Let's try this again, wrote my blog this morning and tech difficulties thwarted my attempts 😉 So I am deeply grateful to be a Gen-Xer, feeling so fully that being of that generation suits all my inclinations......the freedom that lived in my childhood, roaming free until dark.....the iconic parts of that time, the music, the energy .....maybe not so much the hairstyles and fashion, although at the time I embraced it all 😉 But I suppose the thing that always drew me in was the love stories of that time......can we mention the movies of that time....." Say Anything," John you had me with your boombox, all of Molly Ringwald stories, "Some Kind of Wonderful,"......you get the idea.....and I think that is where my deep dissatisfaction in modern dating originates from, and currently it occupies maybe 1% of my life due to the disdain I feel....and the trust I hold for my old fashioned love story finding me, a true Gen-X tale of love and romance, Universe ya listening ;-) I seek slow love, walks and talks, love notes, modern mix tapes, commitment, presence.....all of it....and currently we live in a world where there is a mirage of connection around every corner. The illusion that the NEXT swipe, the next person, the next connection is it, often with the realization coming after the fact.....that that is not so......and being in Wyoming reminded me of simpler times.....slower and more grounded love.....solid men.....the kind I seek and I believe exist because I do....and while it is not the priority, I do think it is good to voice it from time to time, my blog having become a living breathing prayer, and the vehicle to manifest my dreams, words holding immense power.......ironically and sweetly my girl would have thrived as a Gen-Xer....she gets it, and voices how she wishes she would have grown up then, particularly drawn in by older music 🎶......the current system is deeply flawed, modern dating a fool's game, and connecting with somebody organically the gold........and I say all that at the risk of sounding like an old lady, except I am not that either due to some Gen-X magic lol.......I believe with whole heart that my guy- whoever he is....will be delivered at the right time, the right circumstance, but under "Jenn-X" love story means....not being distracted by technology and all the dangers that live there.....but present in the real....heart to heart......also being a Gen-Xer himself, and enchanted by being of that time too....having us go back in time together ❤️ And I cannot wait for all of it, but feel wildly content now if that makes sense.......not anxious or hurried in the waiting. Knowing the season I am in now is for other things, but knowing that the season of love might be around the corner......so yes today is a wish to the powers that be. To deliver me the love I seek, at the perfect time, through old fashioned means......Amen 💫🙏🏻Gen-X baby 💫Happy Saturday 😊
